  • Revising Perspectives on Nineteenth-Century Jewish Composers: a Case Study Comparison of Ignaz Brüll and Salomon Jadassohn
    Revising Perspectives on Nineteenth-Century Jewish Composers: A Case Study Comparison of Ignaz Brüll and Salomon Jadassohn by Adana Whitter B.A., Universit y of British Columbia, 2009 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) March 2013 © Adana Whitter, 2013 i Abstract The influence of anti-Semitism on the lives and careers of Jewish musicians within the social climate of nineteenth-century Europe is well known. Pamela Potter, Sander Gilman, Philip Bohlman, and K. M. Knittel have thoroughly explored the anti-Semitic treatment of Jewish composers during this period. Definitions of the experience of Jewish composers have been crystallized on the basis of prominent cases, such as Gustav Mahler or Alexander Zemlinsky, who were actively discussed in the press or other publications. The goal of this study is to examine whether the general view of anti-Semitism, as shown in those studies, applies to other Jewish composers. To this aim, this thesis will introduce two lesser known Jewish composers, Ignaz Brüll (1846-1907) and Salomon Jadassohn (1831-1902) as case studies, consider closely their particular situations at the end of the nineteenth century, and assess their positions vis-à-vis the general views of how musician Jews were treated in these societies. Chapter One outlines the historical and political context in Germany and Austria, where these two composers resided, in order to understand where they fit into that context. Chapter Two focuses on Jewishness in music, the difficulties involved in defining Jewish music, along with the contributions of other Jewish composers to the wider European culture, and makes clear the important part anti- Semitism played in the process of identification during this period.

The Columbia Catalogues of the period (1906) mention that she was a friend of Massenet (as were a number of female singers). Was José (sometimes Josè) Graville (or Grayville) her husband’s name (as with Mme. Charles Cahier) or a nom-du-disque? There seems to be no trace of anyone with this name in music journals of the period, yet this is obviously a more than competent singer with particularly able coloratura skills. 1138. 12” Vinyl Columbia 30067 [M55-1].

Guarneri studied in Naples and appeared in opera in Europe, coming to the U.S. around 1915. He sang here with the touring San Carlo Opera and other companies and was popular in leading U.S. music festivals. His career after 1915 appears to have been exclusively in America, where he also became a citizen. He made a few records for several companies, including Edison, Victor, vertical Aeolian-Vocalian and Columbia. The reviewer of a 1920 performance of Cavalleria Rusticana gave Guarneri the following praise: “May Barron sang the part of Lola with a pretty voice, but we are tempted to wonder why she preferred Turiddu, sung by Eugenio Cibelli, to the virile and excellent Alfio of Fernando Guarneri, who sang with fervor and gave a good portrayal of the part.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89930-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Richard Strauss Edited by Charles Youmans Excerpt More information Part I Background © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89930-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Richard Strauss Edited by Charles Youmans Excerpt More information 1 The musical world of Strauss’s youth James Deaville Born in Munich on June 11, 1864, Richard Strauss entered the world at a crucial time of change for the political and cultural environment in which he would develop as person and musician: three months earlier, Ludwig II had acceded to power over the Kingdom of Bavaria, while almost six weeks earlier, Richard Wagner had first arrived in Munich under the new king’s aegis. That these related events did not have an immedi- ate impact on Strauss in his earliest years does not diminish their ultim- ate real and symbolic significance for his life and career: he emerged as musician within a city where the revolution in music was a matter of public debate, especially to the extent that its progenitor Wagner dir- ectly influenced the monarch and indirectly had an impact on affairs of state. Character of the city However, of all German-speaking major cities, Munich may have been the least suited for artistic upheaval, given the nature of its institutions and the character of its citizens. In his study Pleasure Wars, Peter Gay paints a picture of a Munich that was hopelessly polarized, between the cultural offerings sponsored by the ruling Wittelsbachs and the middle class that preferred popular types of entertainment.1 Notably absent during the reigns of Ludwig I, Maximilian II, and Ludwig II was a significant bour- geois involvement in the higher forms of art, which Gay attributes in part to what he calls the “habitual passivity” of Munich’s Bürger,2 formed by a nexus of the monarch’s paternalist attitude towards his subjects and the residents’ appetite for amusement.
